Resumen
This study assesses price transmission along the Egyptian tomato food marketing chain in the
period that followed the Arab Spring, which accentuated economic precariousness in Egypt. Static
and time-varying copula methods are used for this purpose. Results suggest a positive link between
producer, wholesaler and retailer tomato prices. Such positive dependence is characterized by
asymmetries during extreme market events that lead price increases to be transferred more
completely along the supply chain than price declines.
